By showing the different faces of our community, it facilitates respect for diversity in the society. When it happens on the busiest streets in Hong Kong, it is the best public education.The Hong Kong Pride Parade is a non-profit making organization. It has created an open platform for LGBT groups and organizations to show themselves to the world and to advocate for diversity and inclusion.

香港區國際不再恐同日活動幾個同志團體，於2015年起特意選用IDAHO+ 作為活動簡稱，參照LGBT+既概念，象徵除同性戀以外，雙性戀，跨性別、雙性人、泛性戀等等同樣遭受歧視的性小眾，站在一起受爭取平等權利。另一方面，IDAHO+中的“+”可以延伸至更多樣化、甚至是流動而不受文字規範的性小眾身份；IDAHO+外觀上與IDAHOT近似，更可避免名字太長而不利大眾所理解。各地的國際不再恐同日籌辦團體都採用不同的名稱，如有：IDAHOTI、IDAHOBiT、IDAHOT*、IDAHOTIB等，我們想保留本土特色，所以現時選取“+”這概念，成為IDAHO+。LGBT groups in Hong Kong hosting one of the events of the International Day against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia started using the acronym ‘IDAHO+’ for the day since 2015. ‘IDAHO+’, using the LGBT+ theory, represents that apart from homosexuals, other sexual minorities such as bisexual, transgender, intersex and pansexual are also being discriminated against in the society. Hence, we should stand together to fight for equal rights.

The ‘+’ in ‘IDAHO+’ can also be explained as diversity and the unrestricted identity flow of sexual minorities. Different organizations around the world uses different acronym for this day such as IDAHOTI, IDAHOBiT, IDAHOT*, IDAHOTIB, etc. We have chosen the spelling ‘IDAHO+’ as its look is similar to that of ‘IDAHOT’, which makes it easier for people to remember and to represent the local context.
